Survivor Mud Run and Motivation

Mayem of Mud

needle in a haystack

I have been thinking about working out . Every day. But it isn't as easy to actually do the work. Lately my sister has inspired me to start thinking about my workout routine. But I knew I needed a goal in order to be really motivated to follow through with all my good intentions. More than a goal, I needed an actual date. Something that was beyond me to change and that would be rewarding enough to get my butt in gear.

It looks like so much fun, I am nearly giddy. I just can't wait! Today I got up at 4:45 to work out before work (I plugged my phone in the living room, set the alarm on LOUD, and laid out my workout clothes beside it). That way, I HAVE to get up. It worked!!

So one workout down, 2 more to go this week, plus some running. The crazy thing is, I have always hated the idea of running. It NEVER, NEVER appealed to me. Until now! I think I'll try the Grandview trail this weekend. Anyone know how long it is?

About Me

too often I am rushing around from one task to the next, and i forget to stop and savor the moment, enjoy the day, the weather, my family, friends...so i guess this is my therapy, a reminder of everything i can stop and enjoy right now, and worry a little less about what might be or has been.
